BLUEBELL



She is one of a million delicate creatures

Waltzing on a melody in the soft breeze

A whim of sunshine highlight’s briefly

the shimmering of her sapphire gown

In a haze of blue beneath the woods

she is shadowed by giant protectors

If only she could sing a sweet lullaby

her song would melt a million hearts



Delicate flower of immeasurable beauty

Cherished within her sisterhood home

Deep in the heart of a hushed copse

where a passing rainbow cried blue



Her wildness may fool her admirers

for she sways like a brazen maiden

Her head shaking in a show of liberty

but her nature is as soft as her petals

She bruises with slightest brush of hand

her slim petals can weep blue blood

Left alone in the wilderness she thrives

Touch and you sentence her to death

Enchantingly lovely! Puts me in the mood for a Faerie visit! Hugs, Ellie

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

(smiles) Awwwwwwww, this is pretty but a little sad at the ending as this happens ever too much where beauty that's so pure and rare is always at risk! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, you always bloosom with poetry, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet June, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
